More Than Quantum Computing: Applications of Quantum Bits Extend to Search for Dark Matter

Wright Lab assistant professor David Moore, along with three colleagues from other institutions, recently proposed a novel idea of using trapped electrons and ions—technologies that are being developed as qubits for quantum computation—as ultra-sensitive particle detectors that may be able to enhance the search for the nature of dark matter, neutrinos, new forces, and more.Trapped charged particles, such as ions or electrons, are among the most studied systems for developing quantum computers (in parallel with superconducting qubits, which are under development at the Yale Quantum Institute).
